Federal lawmakers collected about half a million dollars more from the health sector between April and June of this year than they did in the first quarter of the year -- a total of $15.3 million for 2009.

A look back at that debate, which was over the 1999 Financial Services Modernization Act, reveals that campaign contributions may have influenced the votes of politicians who, a decade later, are now grappling with the implosion of the giant banks they helped to foster.
- Seeking SuperdelegatesFebruary 14, 2008 4:50 PM
At this summer's Democratic National Convention, nearly 800 members of Congress, state governors and Democratic Party leaders could be the tiebreakers in the intense contest between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. If neither candidate can earn the support of at least 2,025 delegates in the primary voting process, the decision of who will represent the Democrats in November's presidential election will fall not to the will of the people but to these "superdelegates"—the candidates' friends, colleagues and even financial beneficiaries. Both contenders will be calling in favors.

The Latest Off-Road News
Best-in-Class is goal for new Ram HD Trucks
Bragging rights are a big deal in the heavy-duty (2500 and 3500) pickup segment. These are working trucks, after all, not a lifestyle choice. So when Ram executives say they're gunning for best-in-class performance from their new '13 HD pickups, they are putting Ford and Chevy on notice as well as generating some high expectations among potential buyers.
Expectations that, for now at least, will remain just that. So far the Ram folks are holding back on releasing towing and payload capacities, waiting until closer to the trucks' on-sale date before tipping their hand. Here is what we do know.
• Most of the changes to the new trucks take place under the skin, though some styling details—grille treatments, wheels, outside mirrors—will be different for the '13 models.
• The trucks ride on all-new ladder frames, with eight separate crossmembers, hydroformed main rails, and fully boxed rear rails. A factory-installed rear axle crossmember has provisions for fifth wheel and gooseneck hitches that are accessed through holes in the bed floor. For conventional trailers the hitch system gets an upgrade to Class 5, with a 17,000-pound load capacity.
• Ram 3500s are equipped with a new three-link (radius arm) front suspension to improve roll stiffness and support a higher front axle weight rating. The 2500 models retain their five-link front suspensions for better articulation. The rear leaf-spring suspensions are beefed up as well to handle the truck's higher tow and payload capacities.
• A new front-axle disconnect is designed to improve fuel economy.
• The 6.7L Cummins diesel will be available in three states of tune, depending on transmission choice. Manual-trans versions put out 350 hp and 660 lb-ft of torque, up from last year's 600 lb-ft. With the standard 68RFE six-speed automatic, output grows to 370 hp and 800 lb-ft. And with the brand-new Aisin six-speed automatic, the Cummins tops out at 385 hp and 850 lb-ft.
• All of the diesels get a more robust cooling system with dual radiators, dual transmission coolers, and a charge-air cooler for the turbocharger. A new Active Air intake with a solenoid-operated flap can switch the incoming air source from the front fenderwell to the truck's nose when it senses high operating temperatures or thin air in high altitudes. The diesel's emissions system now uses diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) to meet emissions regulations, and the DEF filler is conveniently located right next to the fuel cap.
• A new Smart System brings two-mode operation to the exhaust brake in diesel models. Push the brake button once and you get the engine's full braking power. Push it twice and it will work with the cruise control and vary its braking force to maintain the set speed.
• The gas 5.7L Hemi is unchanged for 2013 but will be available in 3500 models for the first time.
• Many of the new interior amenities found on the light-duty trucks will carry over into the HD models, including new climate and audio controls, Chrysler's next-generation Uconnect "infotainment" system (with available navigation and Wi-Fi hot spot), and a vehicle information display that's standard on all models.
• The low-content Tradesman trim level will now be available on HD trucks.
• Production on the '13 Ram HD models begins January, and they will go on sale in the first quarter of 2013. Pricing will be set closer to launch.
"Ram is putting Ford and Chevy on notice"
SEMA Show Sneak Peek
As of this writing we are just days away from heading to Las Vegas for the annual aftermarket parts bonanza that is the SEMA Show. Several of the manufacturers building special vehicles for the show are leaking photos and illustrations of their projects. The Jeep is called the Sand Trooper, with Hemi power and 42-inch Swampers mounted on beadlock wheels. The Tundra (or what's left of it) is being built by NHRA drag racer Alexis DeJoria and Racer Engineering as part of a Dream Build Challenge put on by Toyota. DeJoria's plans for the prerunner include a TRD supercharged engine, a full rollcage, and a long-travel (20-25 inches) suspension. We will bring you photos of both—and much, much more—when we get back from Sin City next month.

This Just In
• The Toyota Tacoma carries over into the '13 model year largely unchanged except for a new Limited package with 18-inch chrome wheels, chrome exterior trim, heated front seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and a backup camera.
• In an unusual collabo- ration for the crosstown rivals, Ford and GM are developing a new generation of automatic transmissions together to boost fuel economy. According to Automotive News, GM's contribution is a nine-speed transmission for front-wheel-drive cars, while Ford is working on a 10-speed tranny for rear-drive applications, including trucks and SUVs. Still in the design stages, they probably won't be ready for production before 2015.
• Italian exotic car maker Maserati is getting into the SUV business with an upcoming vehicle called Levante, says Automotive News. It will be based on the Grand Cherokee. Why? Because, as you might have guessed, Maserati, like Chrysler, is owned by Fiat.
Veterans Conquer the Rubicon Trail
Crossing the Rubicon is something many of us enjoy, but for some the experience is life-changing. Wheelers for the Wounded takes combat veterans four-wheeling and camping as a way to thank them for their service. They purposely seek veterans from all eras of service; sometimes those from the Vietnam era hear the words "thank you" for the first time at WFTW.
"We knew that everyone who came would have fun. You can't go to the Rubicon and not have fun," event co-coordinator Dan Hiney explains. "What we didn't count on was that men and women would come and experience a beginning to the healing process for PTSD."
Do you know a veteran who would benefit from being involved in this program? Contact Dan Hiney at 530.518.2101.

Relocating to Colorado Springs
Colorado Springs is dedicated to preserving a rich quality of life. Colorado Springs provides easy access to hiking, skiing and golf. The mountains offer a wealth of opportunity for climbing, camping and biking enthusiasts!
Colorado Springs, Colorado is located at the base of scenic Pikes Peak, about 70 miles south of Denver. The elevation is approximately 6035 feet above sea level.
Temperatures in Colorado Springs are mild. Uncomfortable extremes in either winter or summer are rare in this dry, alpine climate. The Rocky Mountains captures most of the precipitation form east-moving storm systems, giving the Pikes Peak region dry and sunny weather during most of the year. Schools and business activities, including construction, are rarely disrupted due to bad weather.
Assistance with relocation may be available upon request. Please contact the recruiter assigned to the position of interest for details.

Grant is the kind of guy that seems shy and quiet, but when you get to know him, he's loud and outgoing. He's funny and charming. Grant is a great friend, he's supportive, funny, crazy, sweet and awesome.
"Do you know Grant?"
"Grant? Oh that guy, he's really quiet."
"You're joking!"
"Um.. No I'm not."
"He is the loudest person I know."

Grant is a generaly a large man with a very tiny penis and big man boobs. Grants normally like to have sex with big guys with the name of richard. theyalso like to wear hat's that have the bill folded to where both sides are touching. thier voice sounds like a mix of a retarded seal and a 70 year old man.

A long, angry, useless diatribe, often forced upon unsuspecting bystanders and acquaintances who are forced to hear it whether they want to or not. It is a combination of the words "Goddamn" and "Rant".
Carl won't stop granting about the above average service because he is a bastard.

One who is particularly good-looking and talented, more talented than a Duncan, but not as good-looking. There is a special word for girls who do not like a Grant (see Lesbian).

Best Album-Closers of All-Time Mix Tape
Some of these I'd say are indubitably the best album closers ever (i.e., the first three listed), but most are just what I personally consider great closers. Please excuse the rock leanings.

I am moving to Chicago and have intensely mixed feelings for the move.
I am from outside of Chicago, but spent much of my time in the city in my formative years. I decided to move away this Spring. I have intensely mixed feelings about that, but I miss Illinois and Chicago like crazy. I know what it's like to go to Chicago with mixed feelings and not knowing what to expect anymore.
Some love for Chicago artists but not exclusively. I could make a Chicago-themed mixtape without that Wilco song, but I'd be kidding myself, you, and Dads everywhere. I hope your move goes well!

Instrumental music that goes good with an Asimov novel
I've always found Isaac Asimov's novels to be forward-thinking, detailed, and complex. Obviously, if you're reading, you want a soundtrack that's not terribly intrusive. The following songs are ordered by relative intrusiveness into your reading, with the first half being pretty mellow (ambient), and the latter slightly more hectic.

09. The Flashbulb - "Undiscovered Colors"
10. The Glitch Mob - "Bad Wings (Dero Remix)"
11. Wisp - "Negions Fail"
12. Jon Hopkins - "Vessel"
13. Phutureprimitive - "Cryogenic Dreams"
Noise rock bands have the best names
01. The Jesus Lizard - "Monkey Trick" (Goat)
02. URGH! - "Ponekad, Mrzim, Zlogut Otvorena Usta" (Yonuss Tape)
03. Fuck Buttons - "The Lisbon Maru" (Tarot Sport)
04. Jucifer - "Contempt" (Throned in Blood)

08. 14 Iced Bears - "Mother Sleep" (Single)
09. AIDS Wolf - "Tied-Up in Paper" (Cities of Glass)
10. Poughboy - "T.A.F.T.A.D.A" (The End of Men)

12. Les Savy Fav - "Patty Lee" (Let's Stay Friends)
13. Big Black - "Bad Penny" (Songs About Fucking)
14. Unsane - "No Chance" (Alternative Tentacles)
15. Harry Pussy - "Ride a Dove" (4'27" to 9'27")
A list of songs that you love, that I probably haven't heard of.
Sorry if you know any of these! It all depends on the extent of your musical knowledge/where your particular interests lie, so I basically just put things on here that had <100,000 Last.fm listeners. Also most of them are pretty somber, because that's the kind of music I like, mostly.
01. Carissa's Wierd - "You Should Be Hated Here" (Songs About Leaving)
02. Bedhead - "Living Well" (What Fun Life Was)
03. Empire! Empire! (I Was A Lonely Estate) - "How to Make Love Stay" (What It Takes to Move Forward
04. Calories - "Drugged" (Adventuring)
05. Joie de Vivre - "Salt" (The North End)
06. Shoes and Socks Off - "I'm a World Class Assassin" (From the Muddy Banks of the Melitzer)

Raekwon – Missing Watch Lyrics
[Intro: Raekwon (Polite)]
Shit... what the fuck?
Nah man, nah man, hell nah
These bitches is frontin
The fuck the shit go?
Them drug gangstas
Yo son, you got my shit?
(Nah, son, I ain't got ya shit)
Son you ain't got my shit?
(Nah, nigga, I ain't got ya shit)
Yo, son, my shit is gone
(Pah listen, I ain't got ya shit
Lex you sure you ain't leave it in the..)
I started buggin out, fell in the zone, half the bone lit
Passed off, rubbin on my ski hat - oh shit!
My blunt fell, my watch, you seen it?
Gleamin little young fella, he just had the stupidest look, weeded
Yo, I'm tired and stressed, hungry and I'm vexed
And I'm flippin cause these niggas wanna play me for test
Shit fell off ya hand Lord? Stop it, I'm eyein niggas in they faces
After that I'm goin at niggas pockets
The watch, faggot yeah, y'all niggas got my shit
"Yo Lex we family, I helped you cop yo' shit"
Then help me find my shit!
Eye-ballin every fake Frankie Lymon in the joint
Break out, find my shit!
Yeah, yo now I got robbed, I smell it
Mad bitches walkin' by the fella tryin' to crochet, bitch spell it!
Listen trick, be out, bounce
Blew an ounce off of weed in the bitch face, she pulled out two white owls
"Everybody back the fuck up, move!
Chef, you actin' like a loose cannon, Pah, with you and your dudes"
If my shit come up, cool
Matter of fact, clack-clack-clack-clack, niggas pulled out tools
[Hook: Polite]
Yo yo yo yo turn the fuckin' lights off
Pass the illumin' Lord, tell the DJ turn the fuckin' music off
We got announcements, we want y'all to listen clear
We just lose about mansion in here
And yo eh yo if we don't get it back it's gon' be a problem
Then my niggas gon' react and that'll be a problem
Eighty-five thou' gone we got a fuckin' problem
Ain't nobody leavin' alive until we find 'em
[Ghostface Killah]
Excuse me, Miss, no I ain't havin' it
I smacked him with the four pound, bitch hit the ground
Then I stepped off, dry mouth and shit
Equipped with the dipped courdouroy Bailey's with the cream stitch
Powerhouse biscuits that blow roofs off
Rae watch is missin', you take ya boots off
And take off those chaaaaaiiiiiiinnnns
The fat fuck thought I was playin' so I started sprayin
Chicks hit the floor, bottles broke
The owner slid through beefin', duke threw the toast to his throat
We brought the noise like we here to promote
My man don't get his shit in four or five minutes yo we're leavin' with the vote
A gangsta's lotto, thirteen bodies and still climbin
Big shotties, bodied when they sniff body
We did our thing too we got to the Envy lobby
Our last four or five shots we see nobody
Eh yo shit got real that night
Power grabbed him, 'Vine smacked him dead in his head
(Oh shit, nigga he got a magnum!)
Yo we all holdin', rollin
Grab a nigga, search him if he front, fuck it, blow him!
Watchin' niggas foldin
The bartender got a shotgun in his hand
Let off, the wheelchair nigga got up and ran
Surround the Don, full body armor automatically on
The faggots passed off the watch and gone
(yo y'all niggas ain't searchin' shit!)
Yo where the big mouth at? Niggas step up
Matter of fact nigga, lie the fuck up
Nigga tried to swing on G's but he a gentleman
Son, he dropped the dead arm but failed to see it
Two shot G's pealed his meat {*starts to fade out*}
Let's see, niggas tried to front like my niggas is weak
Corey pulled the truck up, C-4ed this bitch, blew it the fuck up!
Niggas'll use and niggas'll die in this mothafucka! {*explosion*}

Either way though, these rings are really very easy to work with.

Customer Reviews
- look ma...i joined a gang! Review by Big Rice
I'm 64 years old & have never been in a gang...until now. Please tell me our gang colors and provide a list of anyone with whom we have a "Beef"(smile)! Seriously... The quality of the workmanship is exquisite. The piece is elegantly crafted and has the hypnotic luster that only fine gold can provide. customer service assistance with the correct gauge & size was invaluable. Your patience & understanding treatment of a neophyte has won you a customer for life. This is the piece that I have always wanted for the piercing that I have always wanted(eyebrow). It looks & feels GREAT! Thanks again Gang...Hey,are there Chicks in our Gang?!!!!

- Great! Review by Laura
Great product and service! I received emails every step of the way regarding my order. The ring was made in about a week and 1/2 and shipped right away. Will be purchasing more items! :)
(Posted on 5/8/12)
- Untitled Review by Jacylyn
First of all, I LOVE ordering stuff from The Chain Gang. I have religiously ordered only from them for my body jewelry.
I have 2 eyebrow rings and I had 2 segmented white gold rings that stayed in for 2 years solid. One of my kids bashed their head into my eyebrow and I lost one of the segments. Well, I can't go around with only one, so The Chain Gang came to the rescue. After looking at my options, I went with the seamless rings. I love them. They continue to make my body jewelry looks classy rather than trashy.

Lovely rings, well made, right size...YAY!
I wasn't sure, at first, how to get them on, but slipped on easily after a bit of bending. One slightly scratched inside the hole of the nipple piercing and is a tiny bit sore, but will be fine in time.
Thank you for a lovely product I will wear with pride.

Two Metropolitan Division rivals heading in opposite directions face off Sunday as the surging New York Rangers host the slumping Washington Capitals. New York posted its fifth win in six games Saturday, skating to a 4-1 road victory over Ottawa. Derek Stepan scored a goal and set up two others as the Rangers remained even with Philadelphia for second place in the division.Washington enters with a four-game winless streak (0-2-2) during which it has been held to one goal three times. One of those instances occurred on Friday, when the Capitals dropped a 5-1 decision at Columbus in the middle contest of their three-game road trip. Washington, which has won two straight against New York after being blanked on Oct. 16, trails the Rangers by three points.TV: 7:30 p.m. ET, NBCSN, TSN2, RDS2ABOUT THE CAPITALS (22-18-8): Alex Ovechkin is beginning to heat up again, with three goals in his last five games. The captain leads the NHL with 34 goals - seven more than Anaheim's Corey Perry - as he continues his quest for a fourth Maurice Richard Trophy. Ovechkin is well on his way to the fifth 50-goal season of his career - and first since 2009-10, when he netted 50 in 72 games.ABOUT THE RANGERS (26-21-3): Ovechkin has two fewer goals than Brad Richards has points, but the center's total (36) is enough to lead New York. Richards also shares the club lead in goals (13) with Mats Zuccarello, who is one point behind. Henrik Lundqvist, who is expected to make his 10th start in 12 games, has gone 6-2-1 in his last nine decisions.OVERTIME1. New York is 5-1-1 in its last seven home games.2. Washington C Mikhail Grabovski (plus-6) is the only forward on the team with a plus rating. Ovechkin is a club-worst minus-15.3. Lundqvist has allowed fewer than three goals in six of his last eight contests.PREDICTION: Rangers 3, Capitals 2

New FATF Recommendations
Read about the new FATF recommendations on customer due diligence/beneficial owners
The February 16, 2012 release by the Financial Action Task Force ("FATF") of newly revised recommendations for anti-money laundering and counter terrorist financing ("AML/CFT") articulates a more transparently risk-based and integrated process, in which countries, law enforcement officials, regulators and entities are encouraged to cooperate to detect and respond to the movement of illegal proceeds and the funding of terrorist activities. While the new recommendations include a substantial restatement of the original 1990 40 Recommendations as well as the 2001 9 Special Recommendations on Terrorist Financing that they replace, both the new text and, particularly, the new interpretive notes suggest that FATF's view is that a more systematic approach is the most effective way to fight terrorist and criminal elements that abuse the financial system. This article focuses on the customer due diligence ("CDD") and risk-based approach contained in the new recommendations document. The article also addresses application of some of the new recommendations in the context of a particular kind of financial institution, securities Broker Dealers.

Interesting Facts about Janice Mccarthy
Meaning of Last Name
date=June 2010 MacCarthy dynasty MacCarthy or McCarthy (Mac Cárthaigh in Irish), meaning "Son of the loving one" or "loving", is a common surname that originated in Ireland. There are several forms extant, including Carthy and Carty. 60% of people with the surname in Ireland still live in County Cork where the family was very powerful during the medieval period. The origin of the name begins with Carthach an Eóganacht Chaisil king who died in 1045 in a house fire deliberately started by one of the Lonergans. Carthach was a contemporary and bitter rival of the semi-legendary Brian Boru and the McCarthy clan were pushed out of their traditional homelands in the Golden Vale of Tipperary by the expansion of that sept in the middle of the twelfth century. His son used the appellation Muireadhach mac Carthaigh (Muireadhach, son of Carthach), a common practice. Muireadhach (anglicized as "Murray") died in 1092. His sons, Tadhg and Cormac adopted MacCarthy as a proper surname. Following the treaty of Glanmire in 1118, dividing the kingdom of Munster into Desmond and Thomond, this Tadhg became the first king of Desmond, comprising parts of the modern counties of Cork and Kerry. For almost five centuries they dominated much of Munster, with four distinct branches: those led by the MacCarthy Mór (Great MacCarthy), nominal head of all the MacCarthys, who ruled over much of south Kerry, the Duhallow MacCarthys, who controlled northwest Cork; MacCarthy Reagh or Riabhach ('grey') based in the Barony of Carbery in southwest Cork; and MacCarthy Muskerry, on the Cork / Kerry border. Each of these families continued resistance to Norman and English encroachment up to the seventeenth century when, like virtually all the Gaelic aristocracy, they lost almost everything. An exception was Macroom Castle, which passed to the White family of Bantry House, descendants of Cormac McCarthy Laidir. This was burnt in 1922 and is part of the local golf club today. [http://www.macroomgolfclub.com/visitors/history-of-macroom-golf-club.htm] The number of references to the MacCarthys in the Annals, especially the "Annals of Innisfallen", is very great. Cárthach was the son of Saorbreathach, a Gaelic name which is anglicised as Justin, and in the latter form has been in continuous use among various branches of MacCarthys for centuries. Another Christian name similarly associated with them is Finghin, anglice Fineen, but for some centuries past, for some obscure reason, Florence (colloquially Flurry) has been used as the English form. From the thirteenth century, when Fineen MacCarthy decisively defeated the Geraldines in 1261, down to the present day, Fineen or Florence MacCarthys and Justin MacCarthys have been very prominent among the many distinguished men of the name in Irish military, political and cultural history. Until the dissolution of the kingdom in 1596, the crown was vested in the hereditary possession of the Mac Carthy (by the law of tanistry). Eleven septs of the illustrious McCarthy family in Kerry are given in Kings History of Co. Kerry * (1) Sliocht Owen Mór of Coshmaing * (2) Sliocht Cormac of Dunguile * (3) Sliocht Fyneen Duff of Ardeanaght * (4) Sliocht Clan Donnell Finn * (5) Sliocht nInghean Riddery * (6) Sliocht Donnell Brick * (7) Sliocht Nedeen * (8) Sliocht Clan Teige Kittagh * (9) Sliocht Clan Dermond *(10) Sliocht Clan Donnell Roe *(11) Sliocht MacFyncen The MacCarthys are closely related to a number of other Munster families. These include the O'Sullivans, O'Callaghans, O'Keeffes, O'Donoghues, and O'Donovans. An early sept of the MacCarthys themselves are the MacAuliffes. Rulers of the Kingdom of Desmond, the MacCarthys stood among the greatest Irish dynasties of the last millennium.
